The Recorder Club was started this year thanks to donors choose and Recorder Karate. Through donorschoose all of the fourth graders were given a recorder and were able to participate in Recorder Karate. The response was so amazing that some of the students wanted to continue playing in 5th graders. A great group of 14 fifth graders signed up to stay afterschool for an hour on Tuesdays to continue their recorder studies and make music with their friends.

Tonight, one of my students told me that the fingering for the recorder is the same as the saxophone. I think you should write a proposal to get some saxophones for your kids! That would be amazing!
